St James's Theatre: RENT The Musical

There will be a post-show Q&A with Director Bruce Guthrie after the matinee performance, free to all matinee ticket holders Do not miss Bruce Guthries brand-new production of the legendary, multi-award-winning rock musical RENT as it celebrates its incredible 20th anniversary. This exhilarating, landmark musical tells the thrilling story of a group of impoverished young artists struggling to survive in New York Citys East Village in the thriving days of Bohemian excess. Inspired by Puccinis classic opera La bohme, RENT features unforgettable music and lyrics by Jonathan Larson including the much-loved songs Seasons of Love, Take Me or Leave Me and La Vie Bohme. Winner of four Tony Awards, six Drama Desk Awards and the hugely prestigious Pulitzer Prize for Drama, it ran on Broadway for an astonishing 12 years. Featuring a brilliant cast that includes Layton Williams (Bad Education, Billy Elliot The Musical, Hairspray) and Lucie Jones (X Factor, Legally Blonde The Musical, Les Miserables), this is a rare chance to experience the searing emotion and breath-taking thrills of one of the all-time great musicals book now to avoid disappointment!
